Generic mapping to existing target object

[aabadpci]

First of all I want to thank you for your awesome work and for your time.

Basically I'm trying to find a way of developing a generic method to map an object to another existing target object. I've already created a generic method that takes an object and maps it to a certain type as specified in the documentation (https://mapperly.riok.app/docs/configuration/generic-mapping/) but I can't find a way to do this with an existing target object.

The generic method I've already made is:

public partial TTarget Map<TOrigin, TTarget>(TOrigin origin);

I'd like to do this also:

// Maps origin to an existing target object
public partial void Map<TOrigin, TTarget>(TOrigin origin, TTarget target);

This results in the following error: "Partial method 'method' must have an implementation part because it has accessibility modifiers."

Is there a way of achieving this or is it planned to work in the future?

Thanks again, kind regards!
